A barber has TO encourage the vanities
and conceits of men more than any other
class of people. For instance, the use Of
powder on n mans face after shaving is
only species Of vanity. The harmless
chalk or maCnesa that is rubbed on the
face Is productive of neither good nor
harm, and a few minutes after leaving
the BARRIERS chair the powder disappears,
either being blown Off by the wind,
brushed off by the hand or dissolved in
the perspiration Of the face. In no case
does the powder last five minutes after
shave, yet people demand its use, and we
encourage the little vanity.
Again BARRIERS must always be on the
lookout for young men vino are ambitious
to have boards. Ii sometimes takes
patient coaxing to develop the first mus
tache, but once done, your patron is your
everlasting friend and customer We
have 10 fiattcr mems boards, speak of
their soft skin or slken hair. II we don't
they will go To ether places where their
little conceits will be noticed. The most
careless people are particular about their
BARRIERS and about the way the hair is cut
Or beard shaved No wonder the barber
is proverbially pleasant, and speaks Of
your family, your growing fame and at
tractiye personal qualities. His trade de-
mands the encouragement OF various
petty conceits. Next to your wife, your
barber is the tlattering glass in which you
see all your good points and none Of your
weaknesses in Globe-Democrat.
